VERY FUNNY POLO.
The Oystermen aud Merchants OF Fair
Haven Play q Desperately Humorous

G0me.
There was no end of mirth and hilarity at
the Quinnipiac rink last night. The fun was
something away out of the usual order and
was appreciated accordingly. In short the
merchants and oystermen of Fair Haven met
in deadly game of polo. All the warriors
were skates, too, notwithstanding the
fact that the first rushers on either side were
never on rollers before.
At 9 o'clock, when the game was called,
there were at least five hundred people in the
rink. The referee, Ed. Dayton, didn't have
a regulation whistle, but he made fog horn
answer every purpose. Below are the names
of the PLAYERS

AJoLLY PARTY.

Well Known Young Ladies' and
Gentlemen Enjoy Sleigh Ride-A
supper and Dancing mt the Forbes
House.
One of the most enjoyable of the many
sleighing parties this season was one that
left a young lady's residence on Franklin
street last evening. Eight couples COM
posed the party. The prancing steeds car
ried the big box sic Ugh swiftly over the snow
across Tomlinson bridge, where no stop was
made to pay toll, and before halt was made
the party found themselves at Landlord
Forbes well known resort on the East Ha-
ven shore, the Forbes House. The genial
landlord welcomed his guests and made
ready in true East Haven style to "make all
at home" A jolly time was enjoyed by all
during the evening. After banquet that
would have compared favorably with those
given by the Knights of St. Patrick and
which have achieved much fame, dancing
was INDUCED in till late hour. The COM
mittee, to whom all praise is due for the sue
cess of the affair, was Thomas w. Lane, DR..
NJ. J. OConnor and William Donnelly.

Trouble occurred I'm tho main ONCE of the Baltimore

reports are true nearly resulted in strike Of the en-
tire force OF clegraphers male and female that Is
employed by the company. The cause of tho difficulty
was the FASTING up Of order the bulletin in the

this extra force the Baltimore and Ohio Company de-
ponds for tho handling Of the Sunday matter This
plan has undoubtedly been expensive one and with
the other changes coming with the ending Of the fiscal
year last Friday night, change in that department
introduced.
Tho bulletin that caused the trouble was to the
effect that the day staff should be divided

on every thirteenth night the respective squads would
